I have overhauled two Wikipedia articles on major topics in the history of math. One of these was essentially copy-pasted into the Slovenian Wikipedia, where it (what is effectively all my work, apart from the translation itself) is now a featured article.

I defended science against anti-intellectuals online.

None, although I could have partly contributed. You see I was part of a top secret intergovernmental research team working for certain organizations that I'd be a moron to mention and I helped develop an implementation of a algorithm that among other things solved the R*em*nn Hyp*thesis. However political wrangling meant that we ended up destroying all the proof, coding, waved magnets over harddrives and dumped them somewhere inaccessible to humans. You might think this was a loss to humanity, but we realized especially because of one particular agency that was involved in the project, if they got their hands on the decrypter we built it'd be GG not just for personal liberties in general, but we realized that everyone who worked on the project would be permanently blackmailed. It wasn't out of some kind of great desire to prevent tyranny, our "team leader" was trying to protect his own ass and we all agreed.
It is a shame in some ways, the way it solved certain ciphers was ridiculously elegant. But also there's a reason why I'm free to shitpost anonymously and reveal this now, and it's thanks to the totally selfish self-preservation instinct of our otherwise incredibly genius team. No I won't answer further questions. But this thread just made me wonder what could have been.
The next team might be more driven by a sense of duty or have more oversight from their superiors, and that's what scares me.

I provided solutions to some contest problems and my solutions are different from the normal solutions.

For example I solve Putnam 2006 problem B6 using the "reverse method". Many solutions tried to estimate the limit using direct method, but I do it the opposite way, I estimate the limit using reverse method.

My qualifications aren't really enough to brag about, but I think its an honest question many anons think about, and its worth it to say a few things about it

Contributing amounts to showing up, and doing the work.

Since science is a group enterprise not everyone can or should do everything themselves. The more you help others the more you contribute in general. Focus on being helpful

Through multiple posts I have implanted the idea that the planet is actually flat, young and has a dome, as well as EMPCOE being a cyclical cataclysm of plasma that destroys civilizations of degenerates, in the heads of dozens of physicists, biologists, chemists, biochemists, mathematicians and astronomers lurking this shithole, thereby planting a seed that will lead to the truthful models as they research and publish groundbreaking works that will shatter the basis of the standard narrative
